Spring has a hundred flowers, autumn has a moon, summer has a cool breeze, winter has snow!
This sentence was originally extremely good, a description of beautiful things. However, at this moment, under the sunlight outside the Punishment Office, it became ordinary. Only the smiles of those beauties in plain robes and their dimples could be seen as the most beautiful scene in the world.
Zixuan could not help but smile!
Her smile was slightly red like a blooming peony, and a gentle flame appeared in the depths of her eyes. After looking deeply at Xu Qing, she slowly walked forward.
After taking seven or eight steps, Zixuan suddenly turned and stared at Xu Qing. "Xu Qing, you've learned bad things!"
Xu Qing was silent, not knowing what to say!
Seeing Xu Qing like this, Zixuan's clear eyes were filled with warmth. The corners of her mouth gradually curved into a perfect crescent moon, and the emotions contained in it chased away all the haze.
It made one's state of mind clear!
This change in the heart spread throughout her body, causing an elegant and noble temperament to rise from Zixuan's body!
It was a kind of beauty that made people feel ashamed of their inferiority and did not dare to profane. It was a kind of soul state where calmness and quickness merged.
It was a charm that made people unable to resist. It was also the Supreme Immortal Zixuan in Xu Qing's memory!
"What are you still standing there for!"
Xu Qing's heartbeat suddenly sped up. He instinctively raised his feet and silently walked to Zixuan's side. Under Zixuan's smile, the two of them walked towards the county capital!
It was unknown whether it was the cool breeze or the fluctuations of his state of mind, but Zixuan's fine black hair fluttered behind her beautiful figure.
As they walked, a few strands of hair intertwined with Xu Qing's ponytail and swayed together in the wind.
Zixuan's gentle voice floated along with it. "Xu Qing, I don't remember my previous life. Even if I experienced the previous scene, I don't have much memory, so I don't know if I was the daughter of the Ancient Dark Abyss Emperor or the wick of the blue lamp!
"If I can choose, I hope it's the latter!
"So, let's define everything we heard and saw as such, okay?
"And I can also sense that the lamp is very, very far away from us. That direction should be the human race's capital!
"In the future, I will take it back!"
"I'll help you!" Xu Qing's deep voice echoed!
Time passed slowly like this. In the next half a month, Xu Qing was very busy!
Even though he had the experience of being a sword-bearer and the help of Lord Seven, Marquis Yao and the others, Feng Hai City was too big. As the Governor, there were too many things that he had to do. There were also many things that Xu Qing had to learn and adapt to!
Therefore, in this half a month, Xu Qing spent most of his time dealing with official business and receiving reports from various parties!
At this moment, in the Shou Residence, the Palace Master and the deacons he brought had just finished their report and left. Xu Qing picked up the teacup and took a sip before a swordsman came to ask for instructions!
The Palace Lord of the Law Palace requests an audience!
Xu Qing sorted out his thoughts and personally came out to greet him.
Under the afternoon sun, the Palace Lord of the Law Palace appeared before Xu Qing's eyes with a female sword wielder!
The current Palace Master of the Palace of Law was once the Vice Palace Master of the Palace of Law. She was an ordinary-looking old woman with a resolute and meticulous personality!
Xu Qing had seen her before, but he wasn't familiar with her. However, the moment he saw her, he couldn't help but think of the former Palace Lord of the Law Palace!
The former Palace Lord and the Palace Master of the Law Palace had died on the battlefield together. Their corpses had been collected by Baiyi and turned into zombies. After the incident at Feng Hai City, the souls of the two zombies had been released. They were willing to continue protecting Feng Hai City as puppets.
Xu Qing sighed inwardly, but his expression didn't change as he bowed to the approaching Palace Lord of the Law Palace.
Even though his cultivation was only at the Spirit Treasury realm, as the Prefectural Governor, this bow was a sign of enough respect for the Palace Lord of the Law Palace. When she saw him, she quickly walked over and bowed as well.
"Greetings, Prefectural Governor!"
"Please!"
Xu Qing said courteously. The moment he entered the main hall and sat down, his body naturally radiated a dignified and calm aura. His gaze carried divine might!
This was the dignity of a prefectural governor, but not everyone could possess it. Not even Xu Qing could.
It didn't seem deliberate at all!
Naturally, Xu Qing was not born with such knowledge. The reason why Xu Qing was like this was because of the knowledge and rewards he gained from the trip to the Sacrificial Moon City. The experience of interacting with multiple Reproduction Gods was something that few could match, let alone saving them and participating in the battle of the Divine Children as the master of the Defiant Moon Palace and the battle with the Crimson Mother!
How could a person who'd seen a god not be calm?
The Palace Lord of the Law Palace was also shocked. This was her first time meeting Xu Qing alone. She'd originally been a bit shaken, but when she saw Xu Qing's calm expression and thoughtful expression, she suppressed her thoughts and solemnly reported on the work of the Palace Lord of the Law.
Xu Qing listened attentively. After a long while, the Palace Lord of the Law Palace finished her report. Xu Qing's understanding of the Palace Lord of the Law had deepened.
"Greetings, Prefectural Governor. Next, please review the list of new recruits!"
The Palace Lord of the Law Palace glanced at the woman beside her.
This woman was none other than Yao Yunhui!
She was now a deacon of the Palace Lord of the Law and had been placed in an important position by the Palace Lord. Therefore, when she accompanied Xu Qing to meet the Prefectural Governor, she was very nervous and had mixed feelings.
On one hand, she wasn't unfamiliar with Xu Qing. In fact, the first conflict Xu Qing had after coming to the Sealed Sea County was caused by her. She would never have imagined that the subsequent events in the Sealed Sea County would cause Xu Qing to soar to a level where she could only look up to him.
At the same time, she had mixed feelings towards Xu Qing. Her heart was in turmoil.
She didn't know why, but every time she thought of Xu Qing, she couldn't help but think about his changes.
After all these years, it had been deeply rooted in her heart.
At this moment, after hearing the Palace Lord's words, Yao Yunhui took a deep breath and tried her best to suppress the ripples in her heart. She respectfully went forward and handed a jade slip to Xu Qing with both hands.
Xu Qing raised his head and his gaze landed on Yao Yunhui.
It was obvious that Yao Yunhui had prepared her makeup for today. Her beautiful black hair flowed down her face like a gurgling waterfall. Her arched eyebrows, delicate nose, and pink cheeks were slightly flushed. Her cherry lips were dripping with water, revealing her seductive charm!
Her oval-shaped face was as clear as jade, and her smooth snow-white skin was like ice and snow. However, her expression was solemn.
She was dressed in the solemn and impartial Palace of Law's black and white Daoist robes, which added to her solemnity. However, the slightly oversized Daoist robes couldn't conceal her figure, giving her a taboo beauty.
However, Xu Qing was unmoved. He raised his hand and took the jade slip. He scanned it with his divine sense.
Yao Yunhui's heart was even more complicated. Looking at Xu Qing, her mind was in a mess.
Xu Qing didn't understand her worries. At this moment, he was paying attention to the name list in the jade slip. The name list contained the earth cultivators who had joined the Palace of Law in recent years.
Every month, there were a fixed number of thirty people who came from various sects. There were also some who were nurtured by the Palace of Law's three palaces in the Sealed Sea County. At this moment, they had the right to decide on the recruitment. However, in the end, they still had to let the County Governor have a look.
After a glance, Xu Qing was about to put it down. However, he soon noticed that there was a month a year ago when the number of disciples who joined the Palace of Law wasn't thirty, but twenty-nine. Among them, there was a name that Xu Qing was familiar with, Ding Xue.
"Last July, there was one less person?"
Xu Qing looked up at Yao Yunhui. Hearing this, Yao Yunhui quickly put away the complicated feelings in her heart. Thinking back, she remembered that there were people with seven blood pupils in the records. Therefore, she understood why Xu Qing was asking her.
However, the more she thought about the missing people, the more strange her expression became. She whispered.
"Lord Prefectural Governor, last July, there were thirty people. One of them was called Zhao Zhongheng. This person could have passed, but in order to be in the same section as a female cultivator called Ding Xue, he openly bribed the supervisor and failed."
This matter was reported by Ding Xue, and Zhao Zhongheng was disqualified. He was still in the assessment period.
Xu Qing shook his head. When he saw Ding Xue's name, he thought of Zhao Zhongheng.
Now, he heard that the reason was because he had been reported by Ding Xue.
!
Xu Qing was full of sympathy for Zhao Zhongheng, but he naturally wouldn't do such a thing. Therefore, he handed the jade slip back to Yao Yunhui.
After chatting with the Palace Lord for a while, the Palace Lord stood up and left.
Xu Qing personally sent him off. Yao Yunhui, who was following the Palace Lord outside the main hall, couldn't help but look back in the direction of the main hall.
Xu Qingxiu's slender figure stood there, reflecting the blue sky in her eyes, turning into eternity!
In the following days, Xu Qing's work finally lessened, and he finally had time to catch up with old friends.
The first person he went to see was Zhang San. With the bustling and prosperous county capital, the business-minded Zhang San naturally came. In the past few years, he had used the power of the Seven Blood Pupils to open a few flying boat shops in the county capital.
The Seven Blood Pupils' flying boats had long been modified. They were divided into two versions. One was for the disciples to use for cultivation, while the other was for outsiders to use as Dharma artifacts.
Due to Seventh Master and Xu Qing's status, the Seven Blood Pupils' flying boats sold well in the county capital and other provinces.
Therefore, the shops in the county capital were also very popular.
Zhang San was extremely excited about Xu Qing's arrival. Of course, he couldn't help but be a little reserved as he led Xu Qing to the backyard.
It wasn't until they caught up that Zhang San relaxed a little.
However, his smile didn't disappear. For the past half a month, he would wake up smiling even in his dreams.
His investment back then had skyrocketed by an unknown amount.
"Senior Brother Xu Qing, a few days ago, Team Leader came and left. He even brought a great beauty with him."
Zhang San rubbed his hands as he spoke in a low voice.
Xu Qing smiled. During this period of time, Team Leader had disappeared. He didn't need to use his toes to think that Team Leader must be with Li Shi Tao.
Thinking about it, he must be very happy.
Seeing Zhang San's appearance, Xu Qing simply squatted beside him like he had in the past. Zhang San's body trembled as he looked at Xu Qing. Then, he took out his tobacco pipe and took a big puff. After exhaling the smoke, he sighed with emotion.
Vaguely, Ming Ming seemed to see the young man who was walking carefully beside the squad leader when he was in the Seven Blood Children!
Unexpected, really unexpected!
